Where I'm From- Inspired By George Ella Lyon

I am from the time of Bear Bear,

From her fluffy golden fur.

From the icy waters

Of the backyard pool

(Blue, glistening waters)

I am from the outdoors

I climb the trees of the locust.

I am from candy and chocolate lattes

From John Cena to Randy Ortan,

Just like that.

From the pep squad to the chess club

I am from my own words and calms me with Bear Bear

I am my own



I am from the Thorne branch

From the smell of the campfire

To the taste of fresh fish I caught myself to roasted marshmallow

From my grandpa to my uncle

Football is their game


With the boxes exploding underneath my bed

Each with a special memory

Each with a meaning

And each with a gift of love

To remind me when I am sad that I am special


I am missed

I am loved

But most of all I am from my family
